10 Chapter 1: Attending a Breeze Meeting
About meeting roles and permissions
There are three roles for meeting room attendees: the Host role, the Presenter role, and the
Participant role. Each role has different rights in a meeting room.
Hosts Can set up a meeting, invite guests, add content, and add or edit layouts in a meeting
room. They can promote other participants to be hosts or presenters, and while a meeting is in
progress, they can switch to preparing mode to create or edit a layout for a different presentation.
They can use any features available to a presenter.
Presenters Can show content already loaded into the meeting room from the library, and they
can show new content from their computer. They can also share a screen, making anything
displayed on the presenter’s screen appear on the meeting room Stage of all participants and
presenters. They can also chat, answer questions, and broadcast live audio and video.
Participants Can view the content that the presenter is showing or sharing, hear and see the
presenter’s audio and video broadcast, use text chat, and broadcast their own audio and video, if
given permission.
In this guide, participant means participant who is not a host or presenter. Attendee includes all three
roles—hosts, presenters, and participants.
Inside a Breeze meeting room
A meeting room is made up of two main areas: a Stage and a menu bar. On the Stage, content is
displayed in panels (pods) and can contain various types of media, including slides, video,
whiteboards, shared applications (on the presenter’s computer), polls, and messages to meeting
attendees. All pods located on the Stage are visible to meeting room attendees.
